Giesting provided an overview of the SIM focus rationale aimed at behavioral health integration for children and adults in the Medicaid population. Giesting reviewed the list of SIM deliverables and components that need to be accomplished by January 31, 2016. (See slides) CMMI is not currently planning to provide funding for a 3rd round of SIM, including implementation of plans created during this planning process. Instead, they may announce targeted competitive grants for the SIM states and encourage those states to take advantage of opportunities to use federal Medicaid funds more creatively. SIM Committees: Update on Status and Discuss Needs (see slides 7-12) Trish La Chica and Abby Smith reported on the current progress to date of each of the SIM committees and next steps. (See slides) Questions raised by committee members:
Are there any meaningful use tools to help navigate 42CFR? o SIM had heard communication barriers from focus groups as well as key informant
interviews. SIM will develop a document detailing use cases on SBIRT and best practices on navigating privacy and security issues as well as the exchange of information.
Can we align with the DOH oral health program? o Yes, the OH committee is supporting DOH efforts and not creating separate initiatives.
Some committee objectives may require legislative action. What are the next steps? o Staff will identify the budgetary and/or policy changes needed to implement SIM plans
and share these with the Steering Committee. As has been noted many times, the SIM plan is for Med-QUEST implementation so the Administration will be weighing these recommendations with other priorities for 2016 and beyond.
Presentation: Review of Proposed BH Models for Hawai‘i (see slides 13 to 28) Dr. Mike Lancaster continued the discussion from the 8/4 meeting on behavioral health integration, providing more information on the components of the 3 proposed models: SBIRT, Screening and Treatment for Depression, and Motivational Interviewing. Lancaster also identified the different mild to moderate diagnoses that are applicable to SIM’s target populations:
• Children 0 – 5 – Developmental screening
• Children 5 – 12 – ADHD, situational depression, anxiety
• Adolescents > 12 – Mood disorders, SA
• Adults > 18 or > 21 – Depression, anxiety, SA
• Pregnant women and women of child bearing age – Postpartum depression, SA
SBIRT:
SBIRT is a community based approach, part of population health management
We can customize CCNC and Oregon SBIRT models for Hawaii

State of Hawai‘i, Health Care Innovation Office | Page 3 of 4
SA is a recognized concern and practices have shared that they would like to start with a model that they determine is important for their practices
We want to engage providers in what they are interested in, to be able to provide them with options and menu that they can select from
In Hawai‘i, there are treatment centers and public high school and mental health centers. Some of the proposed approaches can be integrated into school settings. There's already a mild to moderate program that exists, it's just a matter of getting primary care into those settings
Oregon training for SBIRT was developed by OHSU and was provided through different media; hybrid ACO/managed care organizations had incentives to do SBIRT
Common challenges in SBIRT include: coding management, there were no rates and payment schedule, and how to capture information in claims for incentive payments
Depression in Primary Care, based on IMPACT model - Improving Mood - Promoting Access to Collaborative Treatment):
Identifying a champion among practices is key
The model uses team-based care with a psychiatrist providing support to primary care on care that PCPs are not comfortable with
In NC, PCPs became comfortable with treating depression to the point that psychiatrists were needed only for severe cases
Motivational interviewing:
Puts patients in charge of their health
Practice champion is important because model requires practice and re-enforcement; not achieved through training alone
Train the trainer works well Questions and discussion:
A committee member suggested including oppositional defiance disorder and trauma for ages 5-12
The prevalence of trauma might be disproportionally represented in the Medicaid population due to environment and SES
BH interventions will vary between ages, and the plan gives takes into account providers’ needs and supports in implementing these interventions in their practices
Comment on children 0-5 – the focus is not to duplicate efforts - there's a current children's behavioral health initiative as well as Early Childhood action strategy being developed by Kerrie Urosevich. SIM is aligning with both initiatives
PHOCUSED efforts are supporting community-based screening for early childhood; also looking at the referral process to ensure that appropriate follow up is being done
Each BH approach will have a blueprint component
Counseling needs to be part of the depression model o Dr. Lancaster: while research supports that counseling and medication are effective, we
should also look at resources that target brief interventions
40% of CAMHD referrals are coming from East Hawaii
In North Carolina there are a lot rural providers, we used our AHEC system and provided CME through electronic means and provided support at the local level
Provider feedback: provider to provider consults essential

Committee member: will there be convergence with other sub committees? Yes each of the committee work will tie into different components of the SHIP
Providers are looking for resources and continuing issues with highly acute behavioral disorders in neighbor islands, docs don't know what to do;
Navigant Updates (see slides 29 to 35) Laura Brogan provided updates on the Navigant deliverables which includes Task 3: development of a behavioral health integration evaluation plan and dashboard. The following steps are decisions needed to inform the M&E plan:
1. Identify potential behavioral health integration (BHI) quality and outcomes measures 2. Identify opportunities and gaps and the potential measures 3. Determine the most feasible subset of quality and outcomes measures based on available data
and resources 4. Develop data collection/reporting strategy to enable selected quality/outcomes measures
Brogan shared a few sample model-relevant quality and outcomes measures from different data sources. Questions:
Since we are considering measures from different sources (NQF, CMS, etc.) it will be helpful if a matrix can be put together
CMS has adult and child core sets that should be included
Hawai‘i’s plan must include the need for more data: demographic stratification that addresses health equity and disparities
SIM: Planning for October Giesting reminded committee members that the next meeting will be moved to the week of Navigant’s site visit. A brief update on SIM’s data analysis request was also provided. Navigant is subcontracting with JEN Associates and Optumas who are currently in the process of acquiring data from Med-QUEST. Next Meeting: The next meeting is on Oct 14, from 10:30am-12:00pm at Capitol 329. Adjournment: The meeting was adjourned at 1:45pm.

Presentation to the Steering Committee – 9/1/2015
State of Hawaii Health Care Innovation Office
Dr. Mike Lancaster
BHI models will take into consideration:
• The need to develop a blueprint that can be supported by health plans, providers and patients and their families.
• The desire to build these models with engaged providers.
• The need to be flexible and to meet providers / practices where they are in the process of BHI and with the model that makes the sense for their patient population.
Cont. BHI models will take into consideration:
• The desire to offer at least three different BHI models with applicability to different populations.
• The models must be sensitive and understand the social determinants of health that is prevalent in the Medicaid population.
• Build models on existing infrastructure to leverage resources.
• Other considerations from the Steering Committee?
BHI Mild to Moderate Diagnoses Applicable to Target
Populations:
• Children 0 – 5– Developmental screening
• Children 5 – 12– ADHD, situational depression, anxiety
• Adolescents > 12– Mood disorders, SA
• Adults > 18 or > 21– Depression, anxiety, SA
• Pregnant women and women of child bearing age– Post partum depression, SA
Proposed EBP for PHP/BH Integration
1) SBIRT- Screening, Brief Intervention, Referral for Treatment; to help address the hidden issues with substance misuse in a PCP population
2) Screening and Treatment of Depression - based on IMPACT model to identify and treat depression in a PCP population
3) Motivational Interviewing- educate, engage, empower consumers we serve to be part of their health workforce
SBIRT
Model 1: Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral for Treatment (SBIRT): Early identification and brief intervention for substance use disorders
• Involves evidence-based screening, score feedback, expressing non-judgmental clinical concern, offering advice and providing helpful resources
• Community-based approach that can decrease frequency and severity of drug and alcohol use, reduce risk of trauma and increase percentage of patients who enter specialized substance abuse treatment.
• Cost-benefit analyses and cost-effectiveness analyses have demonstrated net-cost savings.
Cont. SBIRT, more details:
• Model based on Motivational Interviewing
• Incorporate basic recommended screening tools at the practice
• Focuses on at-risk for substance abuse
• Gives providers a clear way to talk about findings with patients
– Provider trainings for brief intervention
– Support for referrals for treatment of high risk patients
– Pocket guides
• Consider targeting specific populations
– Pregnant women and women of child bearing age
• Customize CCNC & Oregon models for Hawai’i
– www.ncsbirt.org
Screening and Treatment of Depression
Model 2: Treatment of Depression in Primary Care: Depression toolkit based on IMPACT model of care
• Provides implementation recommendations, an overall algorithm to help with initial assessment of MDD severity and the corresponding recommended treatment approach, screening tools, critical decision points, medication recommendations and many other useful guides.
• Highlights what to do when patients are not responding adequately, including when a referral to a psychiatrist for consultation would be indicated.
• Introduces providers to the screening tool for depression PHQ2/9, which is a validated tool for assessment of depression and anxiety in patients.
Cont. Screening and Treatment of Depression, more
details:
• Practices will have a depression toolkit
• Based on the IMPACT model (Improving Mood –Promoting Access to Collaborative Treatment)
• Champion identified in practice to monitor the depression registry
• Using PHQ2 and PHQ9 for diagnosis, treatment and monitoring progress with algorithms and monitoring medication prescribing / titration
• Providers/practices need regular consultation with psychiatrists– Telepyschiatry
Cont. Screening and Treatment of Depression, more
details:
• Team based care in practice / medical home
• Prescribe, titrate and call and check on the patient
• Referred to primary care physician when issues arise
• Training physicians / practices / staff a big component
Motivational Interviewing
Model 3: Motivational Interviewing (MI) enhances efforts by the caregiver to engage, educate, and empower self-care management behaviors in their consumers
• The change in health care delivery should include a significantly different role for patients and families in which there is a more participatory component of their healthcare.
• Stakeholders, as consumers of care, need to be included in decision processes to increase "buy-in" of the services offered.
• Is a collaborative, person-centered form of talking to individuals to elicit and strengthen motivation for change.
• Enhances efforts by caregivers to engage, educate and empower self-care management behaviors using a collaborative communication style to improve understanding of the patient’s concerns, strengths and preferences.
Cont. Motivational Interviewing, more details:
• Training program – train the trainer
• Identify MI champion in the practice to be the trainer
• Establish learning collaboratives for MI champions on the islands to share best practices and engage providers
• MI champion will meet regularly with other staff to mentor and support the MI process
• MI guide for practices to implement the MI processes– Inform, consult, involve, collaborate and empower
• Gauge willingness to change behavior– Pocket guide
General Issues and Challenges:
• Coding / Billing and Payment – Doctor to doctor billable service
– Align financial payments / incentives
• Workforce capabilities and resources– Telehealth / tele-psychiatry
– Need to be able to screen, make referrals and appointments
– Potential to expand use of pharmacists
• Where do the “Gap Children” fit in the models– Too acute for primary /specialty care but not quite SPMI
– Clarify criteria for services
• Training resources to implement the models– Medical schools, CME, AHEC, etc.
Cont. General Issues and Challenges:
• Confidentiality laws pertaining to substance abuse (federal and state) and mental health (state) are generally more restrictive than those pertaining to physical health
• Medical Home / PCMH– Including BH and MI diagnoses as chronic conditions
• Behavioral and physical health providers have long operated in their separate silos
• Sharing of information rarely occurs
• Other issues / challenges from the Steering Committee?
What Will We Need to Succeed?
• Engaged providers and engaged consumers
• Support and endorsement from stakeholders
• Potential alignment of payment / reimbursement
• Potential policy revisions
• Other thoughts from Steering Committee members on what will be needed to make this work in Hawaii?
